Sepulveda R, ARREDONDO S, Rodriguez E, Gonzalez B, Leiva L, Sorensen R
Int J Tuberc Lung Dis . 1997 Apr; 1(2):122-7. PMID: 9441075
Setting: Immune response induced by BCG vaccination seems to reflect the development of T-cell immunity and monocyte activation. Participants were recruited from a large prospective study in infants from a...

Sepulveda R, Gonzalez B, Gerszencveig R, Ferrer X, Martinez B, Sorensen R
Tuber Lung Dis . 1995 Feb; 76(1):28-34. PMID: 7718843
Setting: Tuberculin testing is an accepted method for screening pregnant women for tuberculosis. The interpretation of tuberculin reactivity in bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)-immunized pregnant women is still in debate. Objective: Four...

Gonzalez B, Heiba I, Gerszencveig R, Sepulveda R, Elston R, Sorensen R
Tuber Lung Dis . 1994 Apr; 75(2):144-8. PMID: 8032048
Setting: Some infants immunized with BCG in the newborn period fail to develop any measurable tuberculin reactivity despite a local reaction at the site of immunization. Objective: We wished to...

Sepulveda R, Heiba I, Navarrete C, Elston R, Gonzalez B, Sorensen R
Tuber Lung Dis . 1994 Apr; 75(2):138-43. PMID: 8032047
Setting: Studies showing significantly higher concordance of tuberculosis among monozygotic twins than dizygotic twins have provided support for genetically determined susceptibility to tuberculosis. Objective: We wished to explore whether the...

Sepulveda R, Heiba I, King A, Gonzalez B, Elston R, Sorensen R
Am J Respir Crit Care Med . 1994 Mar; 149(3 Pt 1):620-4. PMID: 8118628
The purpose of the present study was to determine in BCG-immunized sibships < or = 14 yr of age whether the correlations of intensity of tuberculin reactivity support a genetic...

Sepulveda R, Araya D, Ferrer X, Sorensen R
Chest . 1993 Feb; 103(2):359-63. PMID: 8432119
Objective: The proportion of tuberculin reactors in a population and the intensity of tuberculin reactions have been shown to increase with increasing exposure to mycobacterial infection, eg, repeated BCG immunization....

Sepulveda R, Parcha C, Sorensen R
Tuber Lung Dis . 1992 Dec; 73(6):372-7. PMID: 1292719
We performed a case-control study of the efficacy of BCG immunization against pulmonary tuberculosis in 15- to 35-year-old Chilean patients born during a period when BCG coverage was incomplete. Our...

Sepulveda R, Ferrer X, Latrach C, Sorensen R
Am Rev Respir Dis . 1990 Jul; 142(1):24-8. PMID: 2368973
The booster or enhancement effect of repeated tuberculin skin testing in Calmette-Guérin bacillus (BCG)-vaccinated young adults was studied in 208 first-year medical, nursing, and medical technology students in Santiago, Chile,...

Sepulveda R, Burr C, Ferrer X, Sorensen R
Pediatr Infect Dis J . 1988 Aug; 7(8):578-81. PMID: 3140208
In order to determine whether tuberculin testing caused a booster effect in children vaccinated with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) at birth, we studied forty 6-year-olds by repeat tuberculin testing 2 weeks...
